I think it would be really cool if we found ways to incentivize building communities in and around old dying manufacturing towns. When people say there is no housing, they just mean anywhere they want to live. Rebuilding communities would rebuild local economies.
I could imagine grants given to towns on conditions about relaxing zoning in areas to allow for more high density structures and less building codes that are meant for single houses, as well as changes for existing structures in certain zones. Also should either create and fund a community liason program for starting small businesses, or wave the majority of financial burdens.
No houses near where the jobs are. In my city it’s a good hour drive to city hub. We all know the cure but capitalism and greed always stop us. We have to take money out of politics to get there

This is a really cool idea. Thank you for sharing.
